Iva does a wonderful job with Alvin and Sydney. They are happy and healthy and Iva has become their favorite. When my flight was cancelled she was extremely flexible and it made me feel good knowing my dogs were safe and cared for.

Jorden is fantastic! Unbeknownst to us, our puppy Beauregard suffers from separation anxiety and had a gastrointestinal scare. In short: he needed a vet trip. Jorden went above and beyond, taking care of our little guy, coordinating with the vet, administering extra meds, cooking a bland diet for him, and provided a calm and reassuring presence for both us and our dogs. We can't recommend her enough.

About: Experienced in caring for cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Hands-on experience with my own pets as well as family and friends. This is what I do full-time and therefore I am very flexible with helping where and how I am needed with your furry family member. I take my dog for a walk, make sure there is plenty of fresh water, take out for frequent potty breaks and clean up after.

It's always a challenge finding someone to stay in my home that I can fully trust to not only care for my animals, but also respect my property and belongings. Paige took ALL those worries away and we are so extremely grateful to have found her! She is responsible, clean, and most importantly - Caring, loving and kind. She immediately bonded with my dogs upon arrival, sent daily updates of what they were up to and left a clean house for us to come home to after a long day of traveling. If you want to take a vacation and not have to stress over who's taking care of your life - Paige is your girl!

I have never seen my crazy dog so calm around a person. She clued in quickly that Thomas had treats. We were very nervous leaving our house full of pets for a week, but all was well when we returned. He sent us lots of texts with photos and the house was very clean when we returned. Definitely recommended!!

Tabbatha watched our two dogs for two weeks in our home and she was truly amazing! It was clear that she really cared about our dogs and she went above and beyond for them, including sending lots of pictures of how they were doing! She was also flexible enough to stay an extra night when we had unexpected travel issues. Overall, we highly recommend Tabbatha!

About: I have never boarded my own dog because he is the most spoiled dog in the world and he loves the comfort of his own home! I believe all fur babies should have the same comfort! I also have walked my dog every day for the past 10 years! Puppies need daily exercise and play! I enjoy walking and being outside. I currently do not work and my kiddos are now in school full time! I love dogs and cats, as well as helping others, so I figured this was a great fit! I can be available after the kids go to school, until the time they come home. I would prefer drop in visits and dog walking. I don’t plan to care for dogs in my own home, but I will care for your pets as if they were my own. Also, I would follow any instructions you give.

We are so thankful to have found Payton after recently moving to Austin! She is incredibly mature, professional, and kind — the type of person you immediately feel comfortable trusting with your home and pets. What stood out most was how proactive she was in communicating; she stayed a step ahead, keeping us informed and reassured the entire time we were away. As someone who juggles a demanding work and travel schedule, I can’t overstate how much I appreciated that level of clarity and thoughtfulness. She followed every instruction perfectly, was flexible when needed, and left our home and pets so well cared for. We’ll absolutely be using her again — she’s a true gem!

We will definitely use Rebecca again in the future - we highly recommend her!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’ve had several types of dogs in my life, from tiny 3 lb ankle biters to a 250 lb mastiff, so I’m comfortable around both small and large dogs. I also adopted and cared for an orange cat for 2 years, which gave me experience with cat routines, litter care, playtime, and respecting a cat’s space. My personal sidekick was Growlithe, my mini schnauzer of 14 years. He was way too smart for his own good and taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and how unique every pet’s personality can be. What sets me apart is that I care for pets with real attention, not just basic check-ins. I pay attention to their routine, comfort level, behavior, and safety so they feel secure while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m used to being responsible for animals and adjusting my day around their needs. I have experience caring for dogs, a cat, and freshwater aquariums, so feeding schedules, cleaning, playtime, walks, and check-ins are all things I’m comfortable managing. I do my best to keep pets on the routine they already know, whether that means morning walks, evening feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or quiet company. I understand pets feel more comfortable when their schedule stays consistent, so I follow owner instructions closely and communicate clearly if anything comes up. My goal is to make pet care feel dependable, calm, and stress-free for both the pet and the owner. I care for every pet with patience, attention, and respect for their normal routine. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s home, I make sure the environment is safe, calm, and comfortable before anything else. I pay close attention to doors, gates, food, water, leash safety, and any instructions the owner provides. I understand that every pet has a different personality, so I do my best to match their comfort level. Some pets need playtime and activity, while others need space, quiet, and gentle attention. I always follow feeding instructions, medication notes, potty schedules, and house rules carefully. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect I would want for my own. I keep things clean, secure, and organized, and I make sure pets feel safe in their familiar environment. I also believe communication builds trust, so I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and notes so owners know their pets are being cared for properly.

Ivi was amazing helping out with watching my dog for a few nights! She communicated very well with lots of photos and went above and beyond to help make me feel comfortable while I was away. I could tell she just "knows dogs" and was able to clearly read my dog's queues and adjust to his behaviors. I'll definitely use Ivi again and can't thank her enough for taking care of my baby boy!

We had a fantastic experience with Chris as our pet sitter! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. Her communication was excellent — she kept us updated and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our flight was delayed coming home, and Chris was so flexible and accommodating, which we truly appreciated. It made a stressful travel day so much easier knowing our pets were in such good hands. We came home to happy, healthy pets and everything in great shape. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. We will absolutely be hiring Chris again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!

Rebecca was great. Despite having very short notice, she replied and arranged a meet and greet that occurred within a few hours of me contacting her. She was very communicative and asked a lot of questions and took detailed notes on what my pups needed for their routines. She stayed over at my house for 2 nights while I was out of town, sending pictures and videos frequently and showering my pups with attention. I would highly recommend you consider Rebecca for your pet sitting needs!

Payton was our first overnight dog and house sitter and she exceeded all of our expectations and more. She watched over our 11 week old puppy Benny (who needs a lot of love, playtime, and potty breaks when he’s not napping) for 3 days while we went out of town for a wedding. We were very nervous to leave him for the first time and she made us feel very happy and comfortable with our decision by sending us several 3 to 4 updates per day, lots of photos, and we could clearly see our boy very happy and playful with her. She also tidied up after herself and left the house very clean which I appreciate after a trip. She clearly loves animals and followed our instructions perfectly
